About Us

     Harris Hanson began providing legal help to injured people in 1981. Since the opening of his own offices in 1984, his firm, Hanson Associates/Advanced Legal Services, has developed into one of the foremost personal injury firms in Alberta.

     The firm has successfully concluded thousands of claims for its injured clients or their estates, including some which resulted in landmark decisions at Trial or on Appeal, in cases involving fatality, clients with paraplegia, quadriplegia, other accident injuries of varying severity and slip and fall cases.

     Most cases are successfully concluded before trial, including large claims, where insurers pay their policy limits.

     Mr. Hanson, while remaining active as a litigator, continues to assist other personal injury lawyers as a civil litigation mentor, through his involvement with the Alberta Civil Trial Lawyers Association and through the articles and seminar materials that he writes.
